Daily Devotionals by Ardith Keef

     All the unsaved people you know suffer.
     Don't kid yourself.  Just because someone appears to have it all together
doesn't mean it is really true.
     I know a number of non-Christians who are splendid people.  They are 
well-adjusted, fair and wise.  Their stability is enviable, and many Christians are
not able to make the same claim.
     But, there is always a hidden fear and it is only exposed when the threat arises.
     With believers, this is not the case.
     The fear is always exposed and the Lord is always dealing with it if He is
allowed.  Also, the enemy is constantly seeking to devour, and He knows how to
agitate and rattle his little saber.
     Soldier of the Cross, never be intimidated.  Never let yourself think that the
unsaved person in front of you is better off than the man lying in the gutter.
     They are both without Christ.
     And they are both teetering on the brink of a lava-filled abyss that will 
capture them for all eternity.  That is, if they are not rescued.
     The Rescuer, The Savior, has asked you to "herald and preach the Word, in
season and out of season. . ."  and, that you must do.
     Go and do it.
